The manufacturer issues an “upgrade notice” (or whatever they called them in the past), the lawsuits are paid, and the belief that a gun can’t fire without pulling the trigger is still safe. Three people stood there and watched this happen. I have no doubt they know what happened. But I have serious doubts we will ever hear the story from them.

I use Bullhide belts. Top quality products and excellent customer service.

I was playing around with a feature but decided to go ahead and offer it to Benefactors, Vendors, and Moderators as a perk. You can do when you view your profile now. You're limited to a 64KB photo, which should be sufficient if you do a little editing of your pics offline before trying to upload them.

Well I finally sat down and did some financial planning. Looks like next year I can retire at 54 and live comfortably for about 11 minutes.

On the Ranger station broadcast "net call, net call......another tourist has afforded us the opportunity for tender Bison burgers tonight, they taste great so don't be late! Tight green shorts are optional"

Sounds more to me like the Rangers just wanted to make a point. Why is it that when bears get habituated to people they go out of their way to retrain their fear of people and not much effort was made to save this animal. Even if the herd didn't eventually take it in, I am sure there are more than a few sanctuaries it could have been moved to. No, they just wanted to make a point and get some media exposure about this problem, and it is a problem, and since Bison have become so plentiful, well...

Get the rubberized cork gasket sheet stock from O'Reilleys auto parts. Then chamfer a 38 brass to sharp edge. Tap base with mallet to cut. Do 3 or 4 and then push out of case using a bamboo skewer stick through primer hole. That is basically what I did and it worked great. Now I just use #4 blanks from Home Depot without any media. The concussion puts them on the ground where you can step on them.

this place is worth all of your effort David.

Yea, definitely appreciate the effort put forth to keep us sharing and arguing about important and totally stupid subjects. Keep up the good work, we will be right here even if it means staring at the maintenance screen while you get it running the way you want it.

I picked up a Kimber Mountain Ascent in 308. The Mountain Ascent is the lightest production bolt action big game rifle available today. It weighs 5lbs 5ozs. It is really light. It has a kevlar/carbon fiber stock. The barrel is luted. The bolt is spiral fluted with the bolt handle hollowed out to remove more weight. Have not shot it yet. I have to figure out what glass to put on it. I can't decide if I want a silver scope to match or a black scope for the contrast. Here are a couple of pics.

Someone here actually COMPLAINING about a USA made gun. Yep, it's the end of the world. Everything is backwards.

Sweet. I've seen the scope with a matching camo pattern. It's pretty sharp.

You asked for it... HERE IT IS!! Just in time for Summer, we are making available for order for the next 21 days these high-quality T-Shirts with the TGO logo on the left-front breast area and a variation on our popular "Shall Not Be Infringed" decal design on the back, with words from the Tennessee State Constitution reaffirming the citizen's right to be armed for their common defense. These are available via Teespring and come in Black, Grey, Olive Drab and even Pink (for the ladies). >>> ORDER YOURS HERE <<<

Thanks for the heads-up in the Winchester 22WMR. At $12.07/box it's a nice deal..

Just placed an order. Now to play the waiting game... at least its not like the wait for a NFA stamp!

Just put my order in. Thanks

These belt threads usually go the same way the pump shotgun threads go; the answers are Beltman and Remington 870. It just doesn’t get any better.

To each his own, pay what it's worth to you. I have plenty of what ever cal. I shoot. If I see anything at a good price I buy it. If it's on the high side I pass on it. I'm at a point now if I want shoot I get ammo out of the safe and don't worry about having to replace it a.s.a.p. and it's a good feeling.

All kinds of cool stuff. Set one for me too.

http://www.thebeltman.net/www/htdocs/index.html I've got one and so does my wife. Mine's something like 10 yrs old now and still works fine.

Though I only have one firearm that shoots .22mag, and it's a Single Six that also does .22LR, I would simply retire any .22mag only gun for now rather than pay that. I mean, I just bought a bunch of 9mm at half that per round, delivered. And even pedestrian .223 and 7.6x39 is significantly cheaper than that, with of course a lot more bang. - OS

My wife built one

Nifty, thanks, just did one to check it out. - OS

My suggestion is a better way of doing this. Post numbers are not concrete; they can change depending on moderator actions taken in a thread or if a thread is split apart.

I bet he was holstering and something made its way into the trigger guard, perhaps even his finger.

Only because of you folks, Mike.

Will do tomorrow

Took the same path afterward and hoisted one for Rick. Sleep then gratefully a new day will appear!

Now with the shirts and tumblers, we'll have no problem spotting a TGO'er at any event.

David, Next time you make fun of me for not having a smartphone, and my hatred of computers, I will remind you of May 17, 2016. Amish sounds just about right. I was thinking just yesterday of retiring in a log cabin, without Internet, TV, computers, all that technology junk. What bliss that would be. Sorry you had a bad day. Plan for the day you can leave all this IT crud behind! There is light at the end of the tunnel! (unless it's an approaching train...). Up until such time, we do appreciate you suffering for us to make TGO possible! Cheers!

Mmm. Bourbon .

Sorry your day sucked. Your work and effort is very much appreciated .

You know you can reload these, right? Nice looking rifles though!

Nice! I'm not familiar with the Mountain Ascent. Does it have a CRF Mauser/M70 type action like the Montana? Sweet looking rifle!

Been a loooong time since I last had access to a workshop, but I had a fun day today! Got this hunter profiled, ground & heat treated. O1 steel 3/16 thick. 4¼" blade fully flat ground at 62RWC. 5½" handle. I'm just waiting on some bar stock to come in for the pins, but I'll be handling it with blaze orange G10 with blue & white liners.

That looks awesome Rob!

I haven't seen one but I think I would prefer it. I'll have to go shopping I guess i dig me some made in the USA stuff, which is far and few between.

I've got an idea forming up for another shirt design later. Maybe we can do these quarterly or something. Do two runs of t-shirts in the warmer weather, long sleeve T's for the cooler weather and hoodies / sweat shirts for the cold weather.

Okay, now that I know I was indeed viewing in the mobile version, I'm definitely going to have to disagree in the differences. With TT I get a tab selection to allow me to view: Trending, Subforums, Timeline (most recent posts), Unread, Subscribed, and my favorite, Participated. In the various sections I get a preview of the last viewed post in all the threads, and if there are any pictures in the OP, it shows that too in the preview. I also like their notification feature that tells me the specific notification and which forum it came from with a swipe. Also, on my TT home page I can quickly switch between various forums with one touch. And as you mentioned, the ability to embed pics directly off the phone. So in all I've found TT very useful for me. YMMV.

Have you tried the Aguila Colibri.22? This is a primer-only load that is easier to find and cheaper than CB caps. Very low pressure and has worked well in the antique .22s.

Don't worry, I can make you an AIWB holster for that. lol

Great job. I like it all, but the blade design is over the top

Very nice.

That's a beauty......you're a natural

Love it!

Managed to get the scales glued up, pins installed, shaped & finish sanded over the past couple of days. ¼" stainless pins, G10 scales with white & blue liners. All I need now is for my leather to arrive & I'll get a sheath made up.

Fantastic!!!!!!! Keep us posted on the WIP!

  Yep, folks been saying that for almost 3.5 years now.   - OS
